VFM ETL Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Credit based system, instead of fixed monthly charges in major advantage. On successive sync, they charge only for delta, that is a huge plus, considering successive sync have less data as compared to first sync.
Other thing, they have a variety of connectors to fetch data from different sources.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes there were issues with connector data fetching
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were trying to build eCommerce specific data analytics system. Instead of building our connectors and data pipeline. Fivetran offered that complex part to build our MVP, we can focus on the analytics part only.
Makes my job easy
What do you like best about the product?
Fivetran is intuitive and easy to use. Our data pipelines are reliable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I need to resync tables. We hit volume limits in our saleforce sync and sometimes those loads fail.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We don't need to spend our resources writing ETL pipelines
Fivetran does what it needs to do - extract and load data periodically - without much work
What do you like best about the product?
The onboarding was super quick. The UI is intuitive. The documentation is simple and accessible.
There is a wide variety of connectors. And for internal APIs or obscure SaaS apps, you can always write a custom connector through Cloud Functions hosted on AWS, GCP, or Azure.
Staff support has always been prompt.

It can be pricey. The pricing structure around MARs can be challenging to comprehend.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have automated the loading of data from various data sources into our warehouse daily and reliably. This lets us focus on building models instead of on having to build systems to extract data.

Fivetran is very user friendly and efficient to use
What do you like best about the product?
I like how Fivetran is user-friendly and easy to use. The learning curve is very minimal, and it gets the job done well. The process of loading data into my pipelines is very straightforward. It also allows non-technical stakeholders to load data just as fast.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not too fond of choosing a new name for a google sheet despite deleting a previous sheet with the desired name.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Some problems that I'm solving with Fivetran include automating data upload for manual updates to tables. Fivetran has made it extremely easy for non-technical stakeholders to manage their own data tables. Fivetran's capabilities have saved my team and me a lot of time and effort by not creating new ETL pipelines for small tasks.
Fivetran Connectors are awesome

Naming of connectors, you sometimes want different connectors to be linked to each other by name but when trying to open a new one it does not let you

Amazing Product That's Easy to Use & Best in Class!
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to use. Everything "just works." I'm genuinely impressed with how they've made the complicated ELT process so approachable & effortless. I've used ELT tools in the past that were super hard to configure and use, however Fivetran literally blew me away with its user experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish they had a generic REST API connector for custom applications. They work so well with the connectors they have (which is ever-growing) but having a generic connector that I could configure with custom HTTP requests would be awesome!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Internal Analytics! We have data in all sorts of sources (from Salesforce to our own product's databases) & Fivetran is what we use to get all the data into our data warehouse.
Easy ETL GUI!
What do you like best about the product?
Easy drag and drop functionality works great! The tools make it very easy to move data stored locally on my computer into our database, and this saves me and my team time and headaches caused by other less functional tools
What do you dislike about the product?
File names have to be precisely the same or the data appends instead of replaces
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting data into our AWS Data Warehouse from csv
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are considering using this software, I would say go ahead and live that dream. You should buy this tool because it will improve your everyday work and who doesn't want their job to be more accessible more fun, take less time, have more impact, and use more words such that your review receives a higher grade and you get a free gift card for filling out all the boxes. While the AI is adept at telling how many unique words I am using, it fails to capture that I just rambling in this final section in order to get my free gift card. I really just want to receive my free gift card so if you are reading this, know that when you buy the tool, you yourself will have an opportunity to complete a review of this nature and also get your own free gift card? Who doesn't love that? You could buy legos, or you could buy a scooter or you could just save the gift card for when it's someone's birthday and then get them a gift!
